Transcribed Manifesto:
Throughout our history as black people in this country we have been made to use every resource at our disposal just to stay afloat in the sea of injustice, brutality and even our own self hate.
Black people have always risen to the occasion of resistance and self-defense. The battles have been few but whenever we as a youth movement, as a whole nation with righteousness in our heart strike out against oppression, we are unstoppable, ie in the watts riots, the LA riots, Assata Shakur prison liberation, Attica, the countless panther shootouts, The Nation vs. The Police, I could go on and I could start from as far back as Nat Turner for resistance.
Historically we are a force of reckon when united. By using the media, our black soul, we have been discredited whenever a level of power is obtained to where this person could influence the masses of downtrodden youth in America. In Attica, the uprising was done by convicted criminals yet their deeds, their words were of righteousness and the world cannot ignore what is righteous.
Without ThugLife as a nucleus of sorts to unite all street based young black males & females, who genuinely want to see advancement for our people, there would be Thug Death, any group nation, or force will persist without directions. There is strength in numbers. Once we have mobilized and unified, we can make the world listen, they will be forced to make concessions & reparations.
In April of 92, we as an unorganized army shut down L.A. and quite frankly America for a matter of hours. That was with no organization and leadership. No goals, no plans, no rewards. If we plan & strike for a goal as a nation we can & we will have it.
ThugLife Is in it’s first two years is devoted to membership & unification of the gang elements a representative of each major city must be selected before we can implement our nationwide program. So with patience, support & the prayers of each of u this dream can become a reality.
Forever Thuggin! 2Pac, Founder & CEO of ThugLIfe Inc.
Tupac Page 3 & 4 Letters:
Thuglife, There is no way to take away the violence & drug abuse that exist in our communities today. These parasites have been apart of our civilization decline as a nation since it began but it always has been a part of our nation. In the past the street element has never enjoyed so much media hype and attention as we have in the past 5 years and this may in fact be part of the recent “violent crime epidemic, however we can not deny the severe turn the streets have taken. When I say street I am not implying a sidewalk or cobbstone somewhere, but to the business & organizations who thrive & run underground with the streetz of our country. So the streetz have begun to bred more murder than profit, more strays than executions, more senseless attacks than organized planned missions. This is what will destroy not only the business aspect of street life but the culture behind it. The musk, the art, the principles and the very spirit of who we as street orientated youth (thugz) represent. So motivated by the vision of destruction we as thugz want to change our public image and our goals both long term & short term. We must unite & pool our resources, however small, into one empire made up of our many parts. We must galvanize our strength & calculate our ever move. So that we come on step closer to self reliance, self respect and self determination. Just as the definition of “rak” has changed since it was first uttered thus has the word “thug” from the negative comes a positive.
ThugLife continued, we do this by utilizing the very skills we once destroyed our community with. We cannot tax the drug dealers unless we respect & work with them. We cannot call upon our street soldiers for help unless we first all unite together under the banner of survival & good business. The most successful businessman & ethnic groups are united & righteous in what they do. If it is for the people by the people. It will be backed by the people. Eventually we want every dealer to put forth 10% of his profits 2 go towards the Ghetto Heaven expansion program but first unity. Eventually we want to address he government on our needs but first unity. Eventually we will be a strong, drugfree, family orientated, focused army, but first unity.
